Always reliable results
Always reliable results. I decided to see a doctor from the MicroGenDX provider list and he was ecstatic to see my PCR results to treat the infection appropriately. I believe this is the key! Other doctors don't know how to read the results and don't care to educate themselves.

Diagnosed Prostatitis & Chronic UTI Patient Ghosted & Left Without Answers After $300 Test Found ‘Nothing’
I purchased the MensKEY test from MicroGenDX after suffering for nearly 3 years with medically diagnosed Prostatitis and ongoing UTI-like symptoms. Conventional testing had not identified the specific bacteria, which is exactly why I turned to MicroGenDX. Their marketing repeatedly states they provide “answers where cultures have failed” and detect over 60,000 potential microbes using advanced qPCR + NGS testing.
In addition to prostatitis, I have been experiencing multiple severe UTI-type symptoms for over a year, including:
* Burning with urination
* Discharge
* Frequent urination
* Urgency
* Cloudy urine
* Discomfort after ejaculation
Because of these symptoms and my diagnosis, I was hopeful this test would finally provide clarity.
When I received the test kit, I took the collection process extremely seriously. I carefully read all instructions, watched MicroGenDX’s own instructional videos on YouTube, and followed every step precisely. I even drove out of my way to a FedEx airport location to ensure the samples would be shipped as quickly and securely as possible.
About a week later, I received my results.
The report indicated no bacteria, fungi, or organisms detected in any sample — urine or semen.
Given my diagnosed prostatitis, history of purulent discharge, and ongoing symptoms, this result was extremely concerning and did not align with my clinical situation. MicroGenDX also states their testing can detect over 60,000 microbial species and provide answers where traditional testing fails, which made the completely negative result even more questionable.
I immediately contacted MicroGenDX and explained my situation. I requested either a complimentary retest or a refund.
I was told my request would be escalated and that I would hear back within 1–2 days. That did not happen.
After multiple follow-ups over the next two weeks, I was eventually offered only 50% off another test, meaning I would have to pay again after already spending over $300+ for results that did not match my diagnosed condition or symptoms.
I explained that I had followed all instructions carefully, was not on antibiotics, and that given the circumstances, a complimentary retest or refund would be reasonable. After expressing my concerns, communication stopped and I have not received further assistance.
This has been extremely disappointing, especially given the expectations created by MicroGenDX’s marketing, which promises:
- “Answers where cultures have failed”
- “Detection of 60,000+ microbes”
- “Relief for chronic or recurrent UTIs”
- “Gold standard of infectious disease diagnostics”
After nearly 3 years of dealing with prostatitis and UTI-like symptoms, I purchased this test hoping for answers. Instead, I was left with more uncertainty, sleepless nights, and additional stress.
Based on my experience, I cannot recommend this company and would urge others dealing with chronic prostatitis or UTI symptoms to carefully consider whether this testing is worth the cost.
I am still hopeful MicroGenDX will make this right by offering a complimentary retest or refund.

Hi Conor, thank you for sharing your experience and feedback in such detail.
We're truly sorry to hear about the frustration and uncertainty, especially after nearly three years of prostatitis symptoms and thoughtful, careful testing on your part. It's people like you that our team designs tests for and it's incredibly dissapointing to hear that we fell short of our promises.
We respect how difficult it is to receive a negative result when your clinical situation and lived experience suggests otherwise. Negative results can occur for a huge number of different reasons, no test in the world is immune to issues. Even with a 99.2% accuracy rate, a small percentage of our tests come back negative, and we are sincerly sorry that this happened to you.
That said, We also want to acknowledge that the follow-up communication on our end fell short of what you deserved. We'd like a chance to make this right. Please reach out to our Customer Service team directly at 1-855-208-0019 and mention this review so we can review your case make things right.

Website difficulties
Everyone that I spoke with on the phone was lovely, but the website for setting the password and for setting up the patient portal weren't user friendly and didn't deliver the desired results without calling your wonderful customer support personnel!

I received no information and no…
I received no information and no correspondence after registering my kit. I was very careful to follow all instructions, but there has been no update, response, or support. The lack of communication is extremely frustrating, especially for a medical-related service where timely feedback matters. I expected clear updates and basic customer service, but did not receive either.
